The Glen Arbor Players’ (GAP) exciting 2024 season starts soon with four plays that span 80 years of playwriting and that tell stories of love, family, history, and mystery.
GAP actors proudly show their versatility and increasing variety of material this season as they expand beyond traditional readers theater format and choose plays that are family friendly as well as theatrically esteemed.
“Bus Stop,” by American playwright William Inge, begins the season. In 1955, it was a Tony-winning Broadway play, and in 1956, a memorable awardwinning movie with Marilyn Monroe. Harriett Mittelberger directs GAP’s production of the romantic comedy-drama about eight bus passengers stranded at a rural Kansas diner by a freak blizzard. Naïve, loudmouthed cowboy Bo, forcefully tries to persuade Hollywood aspiring chanteuse Chèrie to marry him and make his Montana ranch her home.
